Determination of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme activity in serum by Miceller Electrokinetic capillary Chromatography / 中华检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish a method to measure Angiotensin Converting Enzyme activity in serum by MECC. Method Mixture of serum and substrate Hip-His-Leu had been incubated for 120 min at 37℃, substrate Hip-His-Leu was digested into two parts, Hip and His-Leu. The reaction was ended by 0. 1 mmol/L HC1 , the production was analyzed by MECC directly to detecte content of Hip in production, and calculated ACE activity. Running buffer was 20 mmol/L pH 9. 0 boric acid-borate buffer (including SDS 50 mmol/L) , capillary column was 75?m i. d.?37 cm, injection was 3s by press, voltage was 16 kV, running time was 7. 5 min, detected by UV detector at 200 nm, tempreture was 20℃. Result The within-run and between-run CV was 2. 7% and 5. 2%. The detection limits of ACE activity was 0. 2 IU/L ( singal/noise = 3). The ACE activity and absorption was linearly related from 2. 4 to 72 IU/L. The mean value of ACE was 5. 2-21. 9 IU/L (x?1. 96 s) in 50 normals. Conclusion It was a one of rapid, precise methods for determination of ACE activity in serum.
